X-FI I/O Drive doesn't fit in Dell Dimension - He

I have a Dell Dimension 800 series and went to install the X-FI I/O panel on the front of the PC. However, this model Dell uses a carrier to slide any dri'ves into the bays. The carriers only have holes for screws at the bottom and the I/O panel only has holes on the sides. ARRRGH! Is there any type of adapter that will allow me to install this in the PC? I can't believe that both manufacturers missed giving multiple options for installations. I don't want to return the card as I need it for professional audio. THanks in advance,
Jeff

On my dimension 5000 case it works as follows..... there is a blue lever/catch system on the side of the dri've bays:- if i lift that up then i can slide my cd cdri've out. Yeah? So....,. if you look at your cd dri've you will see that there is one screw on one side and two on the other and that all 3 screws have the head, a smooth bit and then the screw.
Screw the screws in, life the lever/catch thingy and slide the dri've bay in. Only use the screws that came with the dimension desktop btw....... others dont have the smooth bit for sliding it in and out.

I did install psmouse-alps-driver since a thread mentioned it might solve the issue but now i don't even see the TouchPad which showed up as ALPS DualPoint TouchPad and now i'm afraid of how i should go about to remove the driver and the kernel modules that were installed with the AUR package (will it remove the kernel parameters etc automaticly or will i have to dig in and if so where to begin?)

Your friends don't know what they're talking about. SL is quite good... far better than Leopard in my experience. The issue is that many people have systems that get screwed up a little bit, and then they install some major update, and suddenly a slightly screwed up system becomes badly screwed up. (Imagine building a second floor on a house with undiscovered structural defects.) This is often unfairly blamed on system updates... if you rely on word of mouth, every version of the Mac OS ever has been the worst ever.
Of course, I've got no experience with Autodesk. Perhaps Autodesk has issues with SL, if your friends are all using it and having problems. SL did change a lot under the hood, so older software may be incompatible with it.

Flash drive doesn't fit in ss USB port

Hello,
i have hp pavilion 15-n208TX laptop.
It has total 3 USB ports
my pendrive and other USB cables don't fit in one port. I applied the pressure but no result.
all ports are same than what is the problem ?
is the port has any hardware problem ?

Hello @h4c127 ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand you're having troubles with one of the ports on your Pavilion notebook.
I took a look at the specs for your product and I can see that you actually only have 2 USB ports on the notebook. The third port you are using is most likely the Ethernet (RJ-45) or HDMI port. If you look carefully they should be labeled to help you confirm this.

Audigy Internal I/O Drive doesn't fit dimension 5150/E

I have a Dimension 550/E50 and a Sound Blaster? Audigy? 2 ZS Platinum (that comes with a sound card and a internal I/O dri've) I tried installing the I/O dri've in my dri've bay, but cannot close the front plastic panel of the Dimension all the way. I tried swapping the I/O dri've with the CDrom bays, still no luck. The I/O dri've will snap into place, but the pastic cover blocks and prevents the front panel from closing.
Picture of Dimension 550 front panel:

T61, OCZ Agility 3 doesn't fit in the HDD cage

Hi all
So, I finally bought myself an SSD for my old ThinkPad. Works wonderfully - except that it doesn't fit quite right.
The OCZ Agility 3 is slightly too wide for the HDD cage, on the bottom of the drive. Recall that the drive sits bottom side up in the ThinkPad, and that the cage sits on that side. My drive doesn't fit that way, however it does fit beautifully with the HDD cage turned upside down (obviously you can't screw the drive to the cage this way, but that is not a problem)
Now for my question: there is two metal tongues in the top of the HDD compartment, that I'm quite sure should be in contact with the HDD cage - which they now are not. Is my drive now not electrically shielded the way it should be, or what is the purpose of these?
I could cut some plastic off from the drive and make it fit the right way, but I'm pretty sure that would void the warranty of the drive, something I don't want to do. The ThinkPad on the other hand, is long out of warranty. Answers, information and suggestions is greatly appreciated.
Sincerely /O8h7w

That is strange that the drive is wider than a normal drive!
You don't really need the cage. You can get away with just sliding on the rubber boots, and put a piece of wide tape folded over on the drive so that you can pull it out if needed.
Enjoy the SSD!

Not sure what adapter cable you have but if your new machine is a mid 2011 iMac you need this cable. Not a replica of the cable you need the adapter cable Apple sells:

DVD Burner Doesn't Fit!! Any others?

Just bought a LaCie 16x LightScribe internal DVD+-R double layer burner since it was recommended on this site, and now come to find it doesn't fit by millimeters due to the mirrored doors.
Any other DVD burner suggestions? I mean, a size that actually fits the mirror-doored Mac?
Thanks for taking the time to read this!

You'd think that all optical drives would be the same size, but they're not. I found that one out several years ago..
If the drive is indeed too long to mount in the drive carrier and seat fully into the chassis (you say by only a few millimeters) and you've done the obligatory step of removing the tray bezel, the next step would be to remove the entire faceplate of the drive. Depending on the drive, there are usually at least four tabs on the faceplate that hold in the drive chassis. Simply press in the tabs with a small screwdriver while prying the faceplate forward. That may give you the clearance you need to get the drive to fit.

T510i eSATA/USB3.0 combo port: eSATA cable doesn't fit

Hello,
my T510i has a eSATA/USB3 combo port. I assume that an eSATA plug should fit in there. But the eSATA cable I bought doesn't fit. (It fits into my external hard drives eSATA port, though.)
Can you help me with this, please?
Thanks a lot in advance!

Pavilion tx1000 hard drive won't fit 2.5inch IDE cable

Hi everyone,
My Pavilion tx1000 laptop isn't booting up and I've since bought a new laptop, however I'd love to retrieve all my data on my old Pavilion laptop hard drive.
I bought an IDE to USB cable thinking I could connect it to the hard drive, however this doesn't fit. My cable has IDE 2.5inch and also 3.5inch but neither fit. It also has a SATA connector but that's way too small (I tried to get a cable with all the possibilities! no such luck).
So now I'm wondering, what IDE cable do I need to fit this laptop hard drive? Anyone know? That would be great. All I want to do is be able to get my data off there!
Thanks for your responses.

Hello @vic3394,

Apple Mini-DVI to Video Adapter doesn't fit my aluminum iMac

I previously had a 17" white iMac (pre-Intel) machine, and about 6 months ago I bought the mini-DVI to video adapter so I could connect it to my television. Worked like a charm. But I recently bought a new aluminum iMac, and the adaptor doesn't fit into the mini-DVI port in the back of the machine. It appears the adaptor and port are both male ends.
Has the port changed on the aluminum iMacs? The product description for the adaptor on Apple's website says it works with iMac (Intel Core Duo). Isn't the aluminum iMac an Intel Core Duo? I can't figure out why it doesn't fit and which cable I'm supposed to be using instead.
Any advice would be appreciated!

Tecra M4 - DVD drive doesn't recognize any disk under Vista

Hi,
after the installation of Vista my dvd drive doesn't recognize any disks !
No upgrade from XP! It was a clean Vista installation.
I found several links about the registry entries upper and lower filter this entries doesn't exist in my registry under the class CDROM.
I tested the drive under XP it works fine and recognizes everything.
Drivers are correctly installed no problems in the device manager is prompted.
So i have no idea how to get it working, seems to be a Vista problem
Could any one help me ? I'm really frustrated about this
Thanks for your help

Maybe this helps:
- Remove the CD/DVD drive from the device manager.
- Then access the registry and remove the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters values completely from the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
- Then reboot the notebook
But what happens exactly? What disks are not recognized?

Long text doesn't fit the window exactly

Hi friends,
in PO smartforms i have included the header text of PO.
the problem is the long text doesn't fit to the window exactly i.e.,
when we enter the text in PO in the header a line can contain only 60 characters approximately where as in my smartforms it can contain more than that.
so in the display of smart form i get lot of space in the right side and i get the remaining part of text in the next line.
regards,
Saravan raj

hi,
what u have told is correct but we can't expect the end user to do it each time when they paste the long text.
is there any option to bring it by default.

Workspace doesn't fit the screen anymore...

Hello.
Since today (and Mac OS X's update I installed this morning, I guess), my Photoshop CS6 workspace doesn't fit the screen of my 12 inch Cintiq (connected to a 2014 Macbook Air). No matter what I do, it keeps it wrong.
Trying to set the photoshop window to the whole Cintiq screen with the "green" Mac OS corner button, this is what I get:
Hitting F won't do the trick, this is what it gets me:
I tried to clear the Photoshop prefs, without success. I checked for updates and found there was a Photoshop update I had not yet installed, and I did install it, to no success. Needless to say, this makes my copy of Photoshop most unusable, which is a really big problem for an illustrator like me. I really wish I can solve this as soon as possible.
Thanks.

Yeah, no results. Still the same.
If I take my main window and move it up by myself, it's just gonna stay there until the next click somewhere, then it gets back to this wrong placement,.
